Hi Mongo

What a classic beauty - Madge Bellamy - I must confess that I have never heard of her - what is her claim to fame ?

I guess the photo must have been taken in the 1920's - she must really have stood out then.

Madge Bellamy was a silent film star who made tons of movies in the 20's. Her best known movies now are The Iron Horse (1924) and White Zombie (1932). I believe she was the original Pollyanna, and also starred on Broadway in Peg O' My Heart. Other film roles include Lorna Doone, and she appeared in Frank Borzage's Lazybones.

Madge Bellamy is FABULOUS in Lazybones (which also has cowboy actor Buck Jones' best performance). I dare you all to watch it and not weep.
